摘要
《不必说爱我》是美国印第安作家谢尔曼·阿莱克西的回忆录,讲述了以作者与母亲的关系为主线的大量保留地往事。阿莱克西借助散文和诗歌,将鲑鱼这一独具斯波坎印第安文化代表性的意象进行延伸,投射至其他客体,与母性、部落土地(资源)和自然崇拜相联系,来阐明自己的伦理指向及价值期许。鲑鱼这一自然创造之物,反映印第安人对自然灵性的信仰,鲑鱼繁衍映射了母系部落延续的特征,洄游习性代表印第安人对家园的依赖性和归属感。
You Don’t Have to Say You Love Me is a memoir by American Spokane Indian writer Sherman Alexie.It tells of the Indian reservation as the place of occurrence,with the love-hate relationship between the author and his mother as the major thread.With stories and poems,the author foregrounds the salmon image,which is a unique epitome of Spokane Indian culture,and projects it to other objects,linking it with maternity,tribal land(resources),and nature worship,to assert his ethical orientation and value expectations.Salmon,the creation of nature,reflects the Indian belief in the spirit of nature.Salmon reproduction projects the importance of the continuation of matrilineal tribes;migration represents the Spokane Indians’dependence upon and sense of belonging to their homeland.
